DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2020.08.002
Abstract: INTRODUCTION There is an emerging realisation that paediatric reference intervals (RIs) estimated using discrete age-groups may be misleading, especially close to age cut-off values. This limitation has been addressed by estimating RIs that vary continuously… read more here.
